im kinda fail complected so basically i can tan pretty ok-ish haha but i cant hold it at all! my tan was pretty much gone by like november. i was thinkin about goin to a tannin bed a couple times a week for a month before i go to the beach so i wont look albino and get burnt as soon as i get there. will it be safe to go as long as i use sunscreen every time and dont use accelerator or at least not one without sunscreen in it.
by the way is there a cure for skin cancer? bc i was burned quite often when i was younger and am scared of dying young because of it.
and please dont say bronzers or w/e bc ive tried all different kinds and they turn me orange and ive tried the lotion and it works ok but its soo much trouble to put all over me every other day and i dont wanna worry about that on vacation and that gets expensive anyway.

But, my moms friend.. who went to tanning beds, got it. & they got it out of her. but now she has this hugeeee bump on her nose. So, I don't know.. I was gonna go to tanning beds & stuff.. but when I found out about that, I was like no. Because the bump on her nose, is not a turn on.

All of these items contain bronzers in them to not only keep your tan, but to make you even darker. If you don't have a Beach Bum near you, then I'm pretty sure any tanning salon would have tanning-related stuff, such as the things I listed. And as for going a few times a week for a month - at Beach Bum they give you tons of options! You can try 5 different levels. (I forgot the name of the levels, but they give out handouts there and will tell you which one will make you darker. But remember the ones that make you darker are the ones that cost more) and they have plans such as unlimited tanning for one month on any level. And sooo much more!
